Others

  • Layer the following in a 2 or 3 ltr pressure cooker as follows: water, ghee, tomato, 1/2 of chicken masala mixture, basmati rice, remaining of the chicken masala. Ensure the top of the rice is completely covered.

  • Switch off the flame and let the pressure release.
  • Fluff up the rice and garnish with coriander leaves.
  • Serve hot with sides of your choice like egg, raita, achar and pappadam. Enjoy !!

Notes

  • To make fried onions you can either deep fry the sliced onions in sufficient oil or you can fry the onions in 1 tbsp oil and 1 tbsp ghee in a saucepan on low to medium flame until perfectly caramelized.
  • Vegetarians can use mushrooms, soya chunks or paneer instead of chicken.
  • Switch off the flame at the slightest smell of burning.
  • I have used store-bought biriyani masala, you can also use homemade masala.
